What are the Advanced Impacts?
- Repeat Volunteers
- Enhanced Perception of Self
- Career Progression
Overview & Considerations
As with other areas of eventIMPACTS, these advanced impacts tend to be concerned with longitudinal effects that can be complex and/or time-consuming to measure. On the positive side however, these impacts can provide compelling evidence regarding the ability to effect real behavioural change.
The impacts listed here try to give an idea of the sort of areas that might logically output from a high quality volunteering experience, a clear intent to volunteer again, and an immediate perception on behalf of a volunteer that their experience volunteering at an event has provided them with skills that will be beneficial to them.
